Best Motoring (9/2010) - Genesis vs IS F vs Mustang GT vs Camaro SS vs E500
 
I haven't seen this on here yet - fun little race:

ISF killed the competition... then again, don't think the cars it went up against were comparable

NYKnick101 03-11-14 11:16 AM

^^ Agreed... I dont understand why they put an IS-F, A tuned MB and Genesis, along with stock mustang and camaro. The mustang and camaro im surprised didn't get last places since even their sport suspensions are not even track ready. I've been in both those cars and they handle like boats on stock suspension.

Haha, this is the exact analogy I use when other people rave about those heavy American cars. With the exception of the ZL1 and the new Shelby GT500, the rest handle like boats

Well, the Camaro has more horsepower (426) and considerably more torque (420) than the IS F (416/371), and they weigh the same. The Mustang is down on power (315) but weighs almost 200 pounds less. The Camaro, at least, should have put up more of a fight...

Why am I not surprised?

Jkru2000 03-12-14 11:13 AM

Not sure what happened with the Camaro?

The M3 and C63 AMG are here. Too bad the F comes in third. :(

That was also back in '08, before the IS F got the limited slip differential. Huge difference (almost 9 seconds a lap at VIR).

That was a bad ass finish for the M3. The IS-F could have held the first place but the rear wheels kept on cutting loose after the apex of the turn. Better gripping tires could have helped with that. The driver in the benz took advantage of that and over took him.

IDK what the G35 was doing in that race. Looks like it doesn't belong
